HUNTING THE OSTRICH.
How Arab Hunters Prepare for Chase
After the Great Desert Bird.

How Arab Hunters Prepare for Chase
After the Great Desert Bird.
That portion of the bird family Of
which the ostrich is the leading type is
remarkable for the manner in which its
different members are scattered about.
The ostrich itself spreads over nearly
the whole of the deserts of Africa. The
cassowary, with its horney helmet, rep
rcsents it amid the luxuriant vegetation
of Malacca and Java. The dinornis
was once grand representative tower
ing among the ferns of New Zealand.
The emu is another member of the
family confined to the Australian con-
tincnt and the rhea to the southern ex-
trcmity of the western hcd ispherc.
With the Arabs of the desert the
chase and capture of the ostrich is c
most attractive and aristocratic of the
many diversions in which they indulge.
The first thing attended TO when hunt
is contemplated is the preparation
of the horses. They are entirely de-
prived of grass and fed on barley for
seven or eight days before the intended
hunt. They are allowed TO drink only
once day, and that at sunset; at that
time they are also washed. They take
long exercises and great attention is
given to the arrangement of the har-
ness. The Arab says that after seven
or eight days the stomach of the horse
disappears, while the chest, the breast
and crop remain in flesh. The animal
is then in condition to endure fatigue.
The training Is called techaha. Tho
harness used in this hunting is much
lighter than that in ordinary use. es-
pecially the saddle and the stirrups,
and the n martingale is dispensed with.
The bride also undergoes many
changes. the mounting and earfaps.
being taken away, as they are consid-'
cred too Leavy The bit and frontlet
are made of rope, without throatband.
and the reins. though very strong. arc
extremely light. The time most favor
able for ostrich hunting is when there
is the greatest heat The higher the
temperature the less is the ostrich able
TO defend itself. -DQetoH Herald

New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1887-06-08

The Supreme Court of Ohio recently
rendered a decision OF unusual interest
touching the liability of railroads for
making rebates and determinations
to large shippers. The case had re-
lation to the favoritism shown the
Standard Oil Company, and the court
held that no special statutory law
was needed for the purpose OF enab,
ling the state to maintain an action,
the right to do so resting wholly upon
the principles Of the common law.
The court went to the length OF hold
ing that the rebate contracts made
with the Standard Oil Company con.
stitute such an abuseot the corporate
franchises of the railroads as render
them liable to be deprived OF their
charters and corporate existence. It
is a singular fact that although such
reports and determinations have
been the regular pratice. with the
same common law in existence. the
penalty has not been erformed IN q
single instance.

The territory of Utah would make
two states as large as Ohio, New
Mexico three, Dakota nearly four.
Arizona three, Wyoming two, Idaho
two, Montana more than three. The
larger part OF these enormous tracts
OF land is good for agricultural pur-
poses, but OF course there are deserts,
mountains, barren wastes, and min.
eral lands incapable OF supporting a
large population upon their soil. But
by the year 1900 most OF the agricul.
tural lands in this country will prob
ably be under cultivation in a general
way. That is, as they are usually
cultivated at the west-but many de.
cades will have passed before they
are cultivated as they are in older
countries.

The bakers OF Cleveland, O., organ
lied a poal and advanced the price OF
bread one cent q loaf, to the great in
dignation of house-keepers. This ad-
vance is said to have been the result
OF an upward tendency in the price of
flour, shorter hours of work, and
more pay for dough mixing and oven
men, and an increase in the force Of
workmen since the recent strike. The
increase takes three hundred dollars
